The annual edition of the Tour de France Automobile, a revival of an historic french race of the 60's-70's. The race has started from Paris and the finish step were Evian, with some tracks session in Le Mans, the Val de Vienne and Albi.
The Tour de france auto is a rare opportunity to see, to smell and to hear legendary cars such as Ferrari 250 GTO, 250 Tour de France, 275 GTBC, Daytona Comp, or Porsche 906 or RSR 3,0, Ford GT40...etc... It's really amazing to see GTO or Carrera 6 driving (fast, really fast!!! :shock: ) through little french towns!

More than 200 pics in this update (click on pics). Enjoy! :wink:
